Potential of NdCeCuO thin films for electronic applications

Films of NdCeCuO with high crystalline quality (channeling yield of 6%) were deposited on the low-loss material LaAlO/sub 3/, making it possible to measure the microwave surface losses at 18.29 GHz. An encouraging value of 1 m Omega was found at 4.2 K. The T/sub c/ is still lower than on SrTiO/sub 3...

Zusammenfassung:Films of NdCeCuO with high crystalline quality (channeling yield of 6%) were deposited on the low-loss material LaAlO/sub 3/, making it possible to measure the microwave surface losses at 18.29 GHz. An encouraging value of 1 m Omega was found at 4.2 K. The T/sub c/ is still lower than on SrTiO/sub 3/, but this is attributed to the fact that the deposition parameters have not yet been explored as systematically as for SrTiO/sub 3/. The deposition on artificial SrTiO/sub 3/ bicrystals yields grain boundaries with nonlinear I-V characteristics. The dynamic conductance looks similar to that observed on tunnel junctions of other high-T/sub c/ compounds, suggesting that quasiparticle tunneling is taking place for high-angle grain boundaries.< >
